So why am I always in lobbies that are 90% French? I have Best search selected but I'm constantly hearing French, Spanish & Italian. I live in the most densely populated state in Germany but German is rare to hear.

Knowing that Black Ops 2 is ping based, and therefore everyone in the lobby is meant to have a similar amount of latency, I was surprised still to see that majority of UK players are thrown into French lobbies. As we all know from MW3, the French have superior connectivity compared to the UK and thus tend to slaughter us due to a lag compensation advantage that they always have. The same appears to be the case for Black Ops 2.
